Rtek NO Start question with 2.1
I recently got the 2.1 for my car its streetported with bnr stage3 turbo 750cc secondaries and 720cc primaries, the car was starting at first an di drove it like that for like 8 days then yesterday it just shut off on me and it wont start anymore it cranks and i have spark and fuel now the weird thing is that it starts if i push started it starts i tried putting the 550s primaries but they are old so what i was thinking of sending my primaries 720cc out to get cleaned cause i got those used, any help is appreciatesd thank you .
I had a problem one time where my cranking fuel map disappeared. I was totally confused until I looked at the tab in the ecu setup and it was set to inject 0ms of fuel throughout the temperature range.

Fuuuck im at work now I can't stop thinking bout it goons do compression test and hope for the best if it checks of good I was planning to send the injectors to get cleaned , question for the listed mods give me an idea of a good startup map
Did you *LISTEN* to the posts that recommended to LOOK at the START MAP to see if the start map is set at zero or not? You really should before doing any other thing. If the START map is zeroed out, then the engine will NOT start when using the key to START position. It would start if pushed though.
Why? Because if the ECU does not see the START signal, then it uses the AFM for fuel during START instead of the START MAP internal to the ECU.
EDIT: If the engine has low compression (other than something like zero on one face of a rotor) then you'd go to the START MAP and adjust the fuel for MUCH less than stock. Like maybe something like 6-8 ms for a cold engine (say 70-100*F). The REASON the START MAP was introduced to the RTEK 2.1 was to give the operator the ability to adjust the START fuel to a much lower figure than the stock ms (I assumed this anyway, it's not written in blood anywhere).

Ok thanks a lo for the help I did notice that the start map did go back to zero twice but I corrected
By reseting computer but now that I recall it all started when I was driving on the highway and I had to brake hard and then it wouldn't start no more with the key I had been messing with the start map I never got it right it would struggle but it would start now not at all I will check compression tomorrow and post numbers thank u everyone for your help 9101148008600845375640 9101148008600845375640
